Well after 17 years of taking vacations separate (schedules just wouldn't match up) Wife & I are gonna put some miles on her toaster.

Plans are that In theory, we will leave Sat. the 22nd from home (Salem, OR) stop @ the ranch in eastern Or. to see folks, then on to Wichita,Tool, TX for in-laws , and then to Bugscuffle, TN for more family. then home via Kalispell, MT. it's about 7,000 miles in 3 weeks.

think that my butt is gonna get new calluses.
lol

 

Thats one hell of a drive.

 

I wonder how many times you'll fill the tank.

 

Sounds like a great trip, have fun and drive safe Red.

 

Hope you two have a great trip.

Watch out for road 'gators, Red!

 

good luck on the trip and have fun take a bunch of pics to share with us

 

lol, enjoy your trip.

 

thats a good trek, sounds like fun tho, have a good trip!

 

1st day....
nice view @ the Overlook on I-84 Cabbage Hill...


And Then... LOOK WHAT HAPPENED @ E. Boise rest area!


Where is Summer?

And now We are in Rawlins, WY. Monday waiting for all the tornado's to go away in Nebraska

 

That "stuff" at Boise was NOT supposed to happen!

Yeah, don't fight tornados - especially in a box...

 

Wow, two totally different seasons in one day, lol.

 

Short update..did the "SuperMan City"
was a bit "cheezy" but still worth going to see.

 

Left TN. wends. the 2nd, spent the nite in No. Little Rock... so so motel.
now in Wichita, KS for Friday. will give the wife the nickle tour of the terminal & get a pic of 'Mater the tow truck (a wrecking yard on McAuthor Blvd has a Dodge made up to look like the 'Mater" in the cartoon movie Cars).
then we're off to SD to see the 1881 frontier town, the car museum @ Murdo, and Mt. Rushmore.

 

Very cool Red. I spent my grade school years in Wichita, where its flat all the way to tomorrow. Sounds like you two are making good time and seeing alot.

 

Sounds like you are having a good trip, Red!

Update!
